MSF4800S-30-1760-30-0520-10X-1

The MSF4800S-30-1760-30-0520-10X-1 is a light curtain that is used in a variety of applications to help automate processes and ensure the safety of personnel in the work environment. It is most commonly used as a guard for hazardous machinery to reduce risks of injury, but can also be employed for many other purposes. Light curtains are made up of an array of vertical beams of infrared (IR) light that are emitted from the transmitter side of the unit and received by the receiver side, which is usually located nearby.

Applications

The MSF4800S-30-1760-30-0520-10X-1 light curtain is designed to be used in a variety of applications, including as a machine guard, in robotic arms, part scanning, and small parts production. It is also commonly used in industrial control systems where safety is paramount. The unit is certified for protection against laser light sources and has a high interruption rate when deployed in a full-height system.

The MSF4800S-30-1760-30-0520-10X-1 is an effective solution for controlling access to hazardous areas, deterring unauthorized personnel from entering, and preventing inadvertent access by accident-prone personnel. It can also be used in highly-regulated areas where safety mandates the use of a light curtain. The unit is rated for use in Class I, Division 1, Groups D, F, and G environments, making it suitable for use in oil and gas applications.

Working Principle

The MSF4800S-30-1760-30-0520-10X-1 light curtain works by creating an invisible field of IR light beams that trap anyone who attempts to cross through. The unit emits a continuous array of light beams from its transmitter side which are detected by the receiver. When an object interrupts the light beam, the unit responds by immediately triggering an alarm or shutting down the machine, thus preventing any possible accidents or unauthorized entry.

The unit is set up so that it covers the desired area and responds only when the beam is adequately blocked. This is done through the use of multiple beams of light that divide the area in two zones, one with no detection and the other with detection. When an object interrupts the beam in one of the detection zones, the unit will trigger its safety measures and thereby prevent somebody from entering the hazardous area.

The unit has a variety of adjustable safety parameters, including sensitivity and angular deviation, which can be adjusted to meet specific requirements. This allows for the unit to be tailored to its specific environment and the level of safety desired.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the MSF4800S-30-1760-30-0520-10X-1 is a versatile and safe light curtain system that can be used in a variety of applications to ensure safety and automate processes. It emits a continuous series of IR light beams that can detect objects attempting to pass through its detection zone and trigger the appropriate safety measures. Its adjustable safety parameters can be tailored to meet the needs of a given environment, allowing for maximum safety and efficiency.
